So my little brother is a KC-10 pilot and just returned from another brutal (!) 90-day deployment. He just emailed me the link to a video they made out there. It's AF, but it isn't that bad...gotta love that they poke fun at their terrible living conditions! Enjoy!

Point/counterpoint:

Sorry .... and appologies in advance for not getting on the rap wagon .... I made it through 1:50 ..... shut the rest down .... not my cup of tea.

To me: Boring. Mind numbing.
:sleep_125

No judgments, no recriminations, as it's "your" generation .... you do "your" thing ... but you "white boys" need a "real" shooting air war to get your minds right ... :sleep_125:sleep_125

Come fly helos then....it's a lot more real down low...
Iraq is like Vietnam - it's a helo war, and the jet guys are jealous...

I think A4's was referring to what hasn't been around since the days of WWII - Zeros/Me-109's darkening the sky, with guys like A4s shooting them down left and right, and then going back to the base, drinking beer, and screwing hookers. Although I could be wrong...

We are on our 4th set of Air Force personnel they change over so often. When we got extended our commander said "dont worry, its just one more Air Force rotation."

I figured A4's was talking about N. Vietnam vs. Iraq. NVA air defenses sounded pretty scary.....

Combating TIP training AGAIN?!

Hot, yes but deployments to Air Force controlled bases afford a few creature comforts. I have been to PSAB twice and I didn't think it was that bad. All you can eat chow, which happens to be pretty tasty. There was a decent sized pool complete with eye candy. A/C in 90% of the buildings. Free movie rentals. ECT.
